Yuanhui hurried into the Long Corridor of Ten Thousand Miles and was stunned by the scene here.

On both sides were shops and residences, but there was only one street here, and it was a street that seemed to stretch endlessly!

"Even though there is only one street here, the sheer length can accommodate nearly a billion people, and the scale is no less than that of the Capital!"

Said Wuxian as he looked at the map.

According to the map, this Long Corridor of Ten Thousand Miles occupies a full tenth of the Tianxueshan Mountains, with the city alone stretching for more than ten thousand miles.

At first, no one thought this place was suitable for living, but tens of thousands of years ago, the great-

"However, due to the presence of some low-lying areas inhabited by demon beasts, no one dared to develop them, so they were left untouched."

Indeed, the demon beasts here have reached the Nine-hearted level, with some even breaking through to become immortal-level demon beasts, taking on human form.

The wisdom of immortal-level demon beasts is no different from that of ordinary people, while crimson-level demon beasts have just begun to learn human language, but their strength rivals that of human venerables.

Three hundred miles down the corridor is a habitat for demon beasts, guarded by personnel from the Holy Spirit Military District, but the decline of Godrealm has led the guards here to suppress the Holy Spirit Town.

Now, the residents here have formed their own army to defend against the occasional harassment of demon beasts.

"Hey, sir, this is the largest hotel in the Long Corridor of Ten Thousand Miles!"

A waiter welcoming guests approached Yuanhui and Wuxian.

"Take a look, our location occupies a whole side."

Yuanhui looked closely, and indeed, the hotel occupies a large area, and it is the largest building here, comparable in scale to the ancestral home in the Northern Region!

Yuanhui and Wuxian looked at the wide courtyard inside the gate and asked.

"As far as I know, there are no large courtyards in the shops and households here, so why is yours so special?"

"Hey, sir, you've hit the nail on the head!"

The waiter smiled smugly.

"Let me tell you, our boss is a well-known here, ahem, sorry, I need to watch my mouth."

The waiter slapped himself, leaving his face swollen.

"Oh, is the owner of this shop that amazing?" Yuanhui asked, stroking his chin thoughtfully.

"Our boss commands respect even from the city lord, it is said that Luo Meidie is even a princess's sister! Here, she is privileged."

The waiter became somewhat nervous and started fidgeting with his mouth again.

"Oh, so she's a familiar face, it seems we should pay a visit to this boss, disciple."

Wuxian took out a gold ingot and handed it to the waiter, quietly instructing.

"Waiter, we'd like to stay here, we want the best room!"

"You got it!"

The waiter's eyes lit up like a slave to money.

"Also, find a time for us to meet your boss Luo."

Wuxian took out another gold piece from his bracelet and waved it in front of the waiter.

"If everything goes well, this one will be yours."

The waiter quickly accepted with both hands, flattering.

"Hehe, if the adult has instructions, how can the subordinate not comply? Right?"

Wuxian ignored him and had Yuanhui carry the giant sword upstairs.

They entered the middle room, and the furnishings inside were indeed extraordinary. Although not as luxurious as a palace, the wooden materials used were made from precious Tianxian pines, harder than diamond.

"Oh, man, I'm exhausted!"

Yuanhui angrily threw the meteor sword off his back, as he had been carrying it for a full ten hours! If he hadn't reached the Nine Hearts level halfway, he would have been castrated by the mythical weight long ago.

"Boom!"

The meteor sword fell to the ground, making Yuanhui tremble in fear.

"Oh no!"

But the next moment, he watched in astonishment as the eight-thousand-catty meteor sword left no trace on the floor.

"Don't look..."

Wuxian sat leisurely on the grandmaster's chair, taking a sip of tea, and spoke to the kneeling Yuanhui on the floor.

"This celestial pine is a top-grade building material. Not to mention the meteor sword, even ordinary boundary strongmen probably couldn't make a dent with their divine powers!"

"Not even celestial boundary cultivation?"

Wuxian shook his head, explaining, "At least not half-celestial level. But if it's true virtual realm divine power, well, that's hard to say."

"Celestial boundary!"

Yuanhui muttered to himself, thoughts racing through his mind.

"Celestial-level divine power... can't make a mark?"

Seeing the stunned Yuanhui, Wuxian tapped his head and reprimanded him.

"Daydreaming is a useless activity. Instead of wasting time like this, why not go practice... wait a minute!"

Wuxian stopped Yuanhui, who was about to start cultivating, and took out the Illusionary Spirit Furnace, beckoning him.

"I've checked the structure here, the toughness is enough for you to refine the Ice Emperor. At this point, he probably only has the resistance of a venerable, seize the opportunity to gain talents."

Wuxian stood up from his grandmaster chair, waved his hand, and the lid of the furnace disappeared into thin air. The furnace emitted a cold air from inside out, covering Yuanhui, who was already freezing, in a layer of frost.

"Hehe, as a master, I am just an incarnation, capable of transforming into a soul state, impervious to cold."

"What, you sneak attacked me!"

Yuanhui found that his words were frozen, unable to utter a single word.

The light spot slowly approached his body, but as soon as it touched, a thick layer of ice formed.

"Foolish disciple, quickly activate the Star Core to dispel the cold."

Wuxian was getting anxious, and Yuanhui kept activating the Star Core in an attempt to weaken the Ice Emperor, but attempting to refine the Ice Emperor in this icy environment was indeed laughable.

Luckily, he was refining it here; if it were in a cave or on a snowy mountain outside, the Ice Emperor's recovery speed would have been enough to cost him his life!

Yuanhui gritted his teeth, damn it, he was ready to go all out against this!

He fiercely unleashed the Dragon God's Flame to dispel the cold.

Watching Yuanhui's body become translucent and emit two different extreme talents, Wuxian's eyes widened, immediately warning him, "Do not simultaneously use two extremes of Yin and Yang, these two things cannot coexist, do you understand?!"

Before Wuxian could finish, green flames emanated from Yuanhui's body, giving off an aura from another world.

Wuxian was surprised that he had actually fused two attributes, and it turned out to be—poison of ice and fire!

Where the green gas passed, even the celestial pine floors and walls were slightly corroded!

"This poison?!"

Wuxian suddenly recalled the incident at the Magic Pattern Inn some days ago when Yuanhui had already gone deep into the snowy mountains to cultivate, and only he had gone to track the innkeeper, Luo Meidie.

"Hehe..."

Wu Xian smiled and clapped his hands, looking mysterious and godlike.

"What are you laughing at?"

Xiao Tianji nervously summoned his Divine Martial Spirit to protect himself. In an instant, the black and red sword blade appeared, causing all the snow within a hundred meters of Xiao Tianji to evaporate, even the snow-covered pine trees turned into ashes.

"Hehe, I'm laughing at your overestimation of your abilities!"

Wu Xian lightly gripped the scroll, which appeared in his hand.

"Esoteric mantra, the heavens and earth change!" Wu Xian invoked a blue rune. "Oh, the young man can draw as well!"

Looking at the floating characters in the air, Xiao Tianji sneered.

Wu Xian snorted coldly but didn't waste more words on him. A blue fist, four yards high, condensed on his palm, exuding a powerful aura mixed with the breath of the ocean, the giant fist resembling a small mountain.

"Watch me punch you into oblivion, you bastard!"

"Rumble...!"

The blue mountain, with a long scar, crashed towards Xiao Tianji. Xiao Tianji remained unmoved, his expression unchanged. With a raised hand, he struck out with his sword, instantly shattering the giant fist, scattering it in all directions.

"Hmph, hmph, caw...?"

After Xiao Tianji finished a series of actions preparing for a cool line, Wu Xian added a palm strike after he had disrupted the attack.

"..."

A moment of silence and eye contact.

"Hahaha, you're too weak!"

Seeing Wu Xian's seemingly ineffective palm strike on himself, Xiao Tianji laughed. The fascinated Moth Butterfly who had returned from the failed sneak attack was also anxious.

"Haha..."

"Hahahaha," Wu Xian stood with his hands behind his back, also joining in the laughter with a malicious smile on his face. "Old man, take a look at your body, satisfied with my calligraphy and painting skills?"

Xiao Tianji's smile immediately froze as the crystal blue runes covered his body like raindrops.

"What technique is this, so strange!"

Xiao Tianji tried to activate the Nebula Body to dispel the runes, but under the influence of the Nebula's power, the runes became denser and the colors darkened significantly.

"This thing is actually draining my spiritual power!"

Xiao Tianji felt helpless, even trembling with an inability to bear the cold. The ever-changing runes appeared extremely eerie, suppressing Xiao Tianji's fear, causing many townspeople to notice the commotion and come out to investigate. Fearing embarrassment, he quickly fled the city.

"Scared me, finally gone."

Wu Xian also sweated profusely, his heart almost in his throat. With just his current incarnation and the Esoteric Mantra, he was no match for the higher-level realm experts.

"Phew, I used an illusion charm on him, didn't expect to fall for it, hehe!"

Wu Xian put away the runes while muttering.

"Ah, it seems we need to control some military forces ourselves and establish an alliance that can resist the Godrealm government!"

With this in mind, he comforted the panicking Moth Butterfly.

"Hey, young lady, don't be misled by my appearance. I am already a several thousand-year-old monster. As for resisting the holy government, I am willing to contribute."

"What do you mean, sir?"

"Hehe, there are too many ears and eyes here. Let's talk somewhere else."

Wu Xian quickly led Moth Butterfly to a tavern to discuss further.

(Meanwhile)

"Um, it's really cold here. I haven't even seen a ghost here; where did the monsters come from?"

Yuanhui was grumbling about the lack of immortality inside the icy cave, his runny nose freezing into icicles.

"Ah, better to rely on oneself than others. Let me warm up first!"

Yuanhui activated his star core, leaning quietly against the cave wall, blissfully closing his eyes.

"So warm, this furry cushion is so comfortable."

In his blurry gaze, he patted the "cushion" beside him.

"Owo?"

The cushion, staring indignantly at him sleeping soundly beside it.

But Yuanhui, gazing at the snowstorm outside, remarked, "Ah, it's really cruel out there, don't you think?"

Lost in this tiny happiness, he felt a chill on his back!

"Br...Brother, hm, is there someone else here?"
